Resumen del Editor
It started with a simple dream and thrust William Reis and his companions into a dangerous and thrilling conclusion.
Be pulled into the world of the Forgemaster Cycle, as William Reis finds his life changed beyond recognition as he discovers ancient truths that will shatter not only the land of Palnor, but all of Alos.
Blood of a Fallen God
William Reis just wants to be a Guild Smith, a dream shared by generations of Reachers. When he breaks a law older than any other, he unleashes a torrent of danger that just might destroy not only him, but the only family he has left. To save Duncan Reis, his cousin, Will must accept a fate he doesn’t want, and do the impossible....
The Anvil of Souls
William has pulled off the unthinkable, and now finds himself named Forgemaster. His actions came at a higher cost than he ever could have imagined, and he is haunted by his choices. When a slim hope presents itself to get some of what he lost back, William leaps at the chance, leading him all the way to the very birthplace of the Gods, the Anvil of Souls. Only to face what appears to be a betrayal by someone he trusts….
A City in Blue
William Reis and Myriam VolFar have escaped from the Anvil of Souls and find themselves in the strangest place in all of Alos: the "City", as it’s called, steeped in magic. True magic, unlike any place they know of. Drawn into the machinations for power, William and Myriam both must learn to put aside their differences, for the enemy comes, and the only way forward will remake everything.
Experience the expansive and complete fantasy epic in one fell swoop.

Historia
Four decades after the Oblivion Crisis, Tamriel is threatened anew by an ancient and all-consuming evil. It is Umbriel, a floating city that casts a terrifying shadow-for wherever it falls, people die and rise again. And it is in Umbriel's shadow that a great adventure begins and a group of unlikely heroes meet. A legendary prince with a secret. A spy on the trail of a vast conspiracy. A mage obsessed with his desire for revenge. And Annaïg, a young girl in whose hands the fate of Tamriel may rest.

A Dark and Epic Fantasy with Hits and Misses
The Forgemaster series, written by Joshua C. Cook, is a thrilling and epic fantasy series that takes readers on an unforgettable journey. The series includes three books: Blood of a Fallen God, The Anvil of Souls, and A City in Blue. The series is set in an intriguing world, and the plot moves at a fast pace. The series' primary focus is on William, a simple smith who is tossed into an ancient conflict between gods. The Forgemaster series is a must-read for high fantasy lovers who look for an epic and immersive story.
The first book, Blood of a Fallen God, sets the foundation for the series with its dark and epic story. William and his brother take on the corrupt priesthood and blood cult, and the story is told from multiple perspectives. While some of the ancillary characters could have been developed better, the dialog, main characters, and story are well-written, and the narration in the audiobook is excellent.
The second book, The Anvil of Souls, is not as good as the first. The plot is unfocused, and most of the book is a chronicle of a long journey taken by the central protagonists, William, Myriam, and Regin. The characters were a disappointment in this book as they seemed more dense and oblivious than in the previous book, and William, in particular, was an impotent hero. However, the narration in the audiobook is still excellent, and the story's build-up at the end compensates for some of its flaws.
The third book, A City in Blue, is a vast improvement over its predecessor. The book is a departure from the previous book, exploring a new world while still carrying over some narrative arcs from the previous books. The book's strengths are the new setting, the interesting and fresh magic system, and the split-point-of-view narrative. The primary protagonists, William and Myriam, are much improved in this book, and Myriam, in particular, shines.
Overall, the Forgemaster series is a thrilling and epic fantasy series worth reading. The series has its ups and downs, but the first and third books are well-done and engaging. The series has flaws, but the audiobook's excellent narration compensates for some of the series' weaknesses.
A special thanks to Eric Moore, who provided me with a copy of the audiobook at my request.

Worth a credit
Pretty much all good, except for character Myriam which kinda ruins the perfection of the story.
Main character falls in love with her, and she does with him, then Very Quickly she doesnt want him she wants his friend.... typical ultra classy angle.
Aside from the hot garbage that is this character (she seems great at first!), this is a very good book.
I read to escape the negative, a women who claims to care for one guy, only to quickly change mind (and main characters friend ok with doing this to his buddy)... is a little too "young person in 2020s America" for me, not something that should happen within a created world of fantasy that has little to no relation to our modern world in any other way.
___________
Wrote the above about 2/3 of the way in.
Last third (last book) ends up shitting the bed imo, everything above still applies, just had so much potential...
And, lol, the main character... who's love left him for another guy...well that guy died,..so now she's going to settle for him.
Oh joy...
WTF AUTHOR, just stay out of the interpersonal/relationship stuff, clearly not your bag. All else very solid, but this significant lack, puts a stink on something that doesn't really deserve it -- in other words, your bad is killing your good, act accordingly.

1.5 books too long.
It was not a bad story, but it feels like I’ve heard it a dozen different times, Simple plot predictable ending. If it didn’t bother me to leave a book unfinished I would have stopped listening 17 hours ago.
